Abstract

"This book is intended to be a reference source for scientists engaged in any aspect of plant research -- chemistry, biochemistry or physiology -- with primary focus on the chemistry of phosphorus-containing compounds that occur naturally in the plant king-dom, and specifically in the higher plants (Plantae). Algae, fungi and other lower plant forms are not covered. In general, the subject matter is treated in order of increasing complexity, com-pounds of C, H, and O in chapters 3 and 4 and compounds of C, H, O and N in chapters 5 - 8. Chapter 2 covers the various methods developed in early studies to determine the overall distribution of phosphorus-containing compounds in plants. Appendix A covers the changes in phosphorus-containing compounds during germination and Appendix B their accumulation during growth and senescence. The final sections of the book com-prise separate indexes of plants and phosphorus-containing compounds and a comprehen-sive list of references"--

Abstract

Bio-Based Polymers and Composites is the first book systematically describing the green engineering, chemistry and manufacture of biobased polymers and composites derived from plants. This book gives a thorough introduction to bio-based material resources, availability, sustainability, biobased polymer formation, extraction and refining technologies, and the need for integrated research and multi-disciplinary working teams. It provides an in-depth description of adhesives, resins, plastics, and composites derived from plant oils, proteins, starches, and natural fibers in terms of struc

Abstract

The growing need to find a sustainable, environmentally-friendly replacement for petroleum-based materials is fuelling the development of bio-based polymers from renewable resources. Amongst the most promising of these are vegetable oil-based polymeric materials. Vegetable oil-based polymers provides a comprehensive review of the research in this important field.After an introduction to classification and polymerization, Vegetable oil-based polymers goes on to review the factors involved in polymer biodegradation. The extraction, purification and application of vegetable oils are then

Abstract

"This book will present examples of chemical biology approaches that have resulted in the identification of new small chemicals with an impact on plant development and physiology, and give illustrations of how the mode of action is being studied using molecular tools. Although molecular laboratory experiments have a high discovery rate and give very detailed information on the studied processes, the interchange of field studies and that of lab scale investigations is required to narrow down the parameters that determine the effectiveness of biostimulants, something that is of great importance for the successful commercialization of these products. Examples will be given of studies that contribute to closing the gap between the lab and the field. Topics covered include: Introduction to biostimulants. Categories of biostimulants: humic acid and fulvic acid, amino acids and protein hydrolysate, seaweed extracts, chitin/chitosan/oligosaccharides, substances with hormone like activities: Small molecule identification and metabolomics: technology to detect the fate of biostimulants, chemical screens and reporter systems. Biostimulant mode of action. Biostimulant by design: in silico structure prediction. Biostimulants, a practical guide: Examples of commercial biostimulants with more or less known mode of action. The biostimulant business and agricultural scientists are showing an increased interest in investigating the mode of action of biostimulants. This book will help them to get an overview of different aspects of biostimulant research, and provide access to new approaches and methods being developed in the wake of chemical biological studies"--

Abstract

This book deals with the theoretical background and breeding methods of the single dominant male sterile gene, a spontaneous mutant discovered for the first time in wheat.The book is divided into three sections: the discovery of Taigu genic male-sterile wheat and its determination, such as genetic analysis, cytological observation, location of the gene, etc.; theory and method of the new way of breeding, such as recurrent selection, creating and developing the gene-pool; mechanism of male-sterility, for example morphological anatomy, cytochemistry and bio-chemical analysis.
